Practically speaking, I've found that Claude never uses collection expressions, so the feature has disappeared from my code. Before AI, the feature was looked at with skepticism by my coworkers. We like writing "var" for all

I see the same behavior with my MSIs. I've had better luck with my MSIXs. As much as I like being Store-free, I have a June 2025 release of an MSI-based app that still gets dinged by Edge and again by SmartScreen. A different MSIX-ba

I believe you. I also found that many CAs will not deal with a solo developer; that's real. But Sectigo continues to offer HSMs to solo developers. The link I used is [1], you buy the HSM along with your first certificate and they ship

I was afraid of the HSM at first but for an open source developer (rather than a big company) I found it wasn't a big deal. I can't sign in GitHub Actions and I have a USB stick that lights up when I sign releases, but it hasn&#x2

Perhaps not legally, but technically, you have an option: don't use the Microsoft Store. This isn't as wild a suggestion as it may seem to non-Windows users: the store is barely used by Windows users. You can get your own code sig

Windows Forms is the answer you seek. It still receives updates to this day. I've been writing and shipping Windows Forms apps for 25 years. High DPI, dark mode, Edge web views, Blazor integration, we've got it all. Users don&#x27

Is that true? I haven't heard that before. Do you have a link? Here's how they announced 24.04.0. It says LTS and doesn't mention anything about LTS coming in the .1 release: https://canonical.com/blog/ca

That sounds like a problem to deal with as part of your paid IBM s390x porting contract. I guess my point is: why deal with this before IBM is paying you? No other big endian platform matters, and s390x users are 100% large commercial cus

I don't think that's true in this case; the React application loads first, fully initializes, and then sends its state via Cloudflare request. It can't happen at the same time, by design. It has to happen serially. The arti

This doesn't seem to be the same thing. The article isn't about being unable to type before JavaScript starts executing. If I understand correctly, you're unable to type until a network request to Cloudflare returns . The qu

From some minor historical experience with Mechanical Turk, I bet you could get humans to do this for one or two cents per receipt. You do them all three times for error checking for $0.03-$0.06 per receipt. I used to pay a nickel for much,

You can use `xxd` from the vim package to generate these. You'll find out pretty quickly that this is only suitable for small resources: gcc and clang blow up in both time and space on very large literal arrays. If you need to ship mor

I shipped 20MB of XML with a product back in 2014; we loaded it at startup, validated it against the XSD, and the performance for this use case was fine. It was big because we did something kinda like what TFA suggests: I designed a declara

Yes, Scintilla is a text editor engine library . It's not tied to any particular UI or technology. Out of the box it's not a text editor yet; you provide the frontend. You get all the "table stakes" right away if you bu

This is what a teletype is: it's a typewriter with a serial connection. You send bytes over the serial cable and it types them.

I think I finally nailed it? I needed to update JULIA_DEPOT_PATH since I was relocating the cache files. I knew that and was already doing it, but I didn't do it right: I needed a trailing semicolon so it would have an empty entry at

... Actually, this only worked for Linux. My Windows container is back to precompiling every time, again, and Windows was the slow one that I wanted to fix in the first place. I had to revert this. Back to the drawing board. I wish Julia wo

It worked! I was able to drop the Windows install on a standard GitHub Actions worker from 1 hour to 27 minutes. Here's what worked: ARG JULIA_CPU_TARGET="generic;skylake-avx512,clone_all;cascadelake,clone_all;icelake-server

That was the very first thing I tried, and I couldn't get it to work, but I'm sure I am doing something wrong. Everything seemed great at build time, and then it just precompiles again at runtime, without anything saying why it

I have a monorepo full of Julia analysis scripts written by different people. I want to run them in a Docker container on ephemeral Linux EC2 instances and on user Windows workstations. I don't want to sit through precompilation of all

I don't know about everyone else, but slow Julia compilation continues to cause me ongoing suffering to this day. I don't think they're ever going to "fix" this. On a standard GitHub Actions Windows worker, installi

Definitely; I didn't mean to underplay it. Here's a fun one: [Free AI credits](C:\windows\system32\logoff.exe) It works. This is a real exploit that you could do things with.

I believe it is. Just tested it. You can make the link "C:\windows\system32\cmd.exe" and clicking it will launch the Command Prompt. I noticed you can't make it "C:\windows\system32\cmd.exe /c some-nefarious-thing

I won't be paying extra to use this, but Claude Code's feature-dev plugin is so slow that even when running two concurrent Claudes on two different tasks, I'm twiddling my thumbs some of the time. I'm not fast and I don&

That isn't my presumption about nature of the concern. In OP's other comment they specify that the client is specifically worried about the open port .

If you're hosting on a public cloud, you can use a feature like AWS Session Manager to connect "through the backdoor" (via the guest's private communication with the hypervisor) without actually opening the ssh port to t

I don't know specifically, but it's a self-contained single file Go executable. It doesn't need much from a Linux system beyond its kernel. Chances are good that it'll work.

In the late 90s/early 00s, I worked at a company that bought a single license of Visual Studio + MSDN and shared it with every single employee. In those days, MSDN shipped binders full of CDs with every Microsoft product, and we had

Primarily it's the reason you already know: restic and borg are the same model, but restic doesn't need it to be an ssh-accessible filesystem on the remote end. Restic can send backups almost anywhere, including object storage lik
